I despised Bill Clinton.

I despised him for the things he did to our military, for his giveaway of technologies to China in exchange for bribes campaign contributions, his anti-2nd-amendment attempts, for Whitewater dishonesty and for his utter, greasy sleaziness while in office.

Nonetheless, when he was indicted and impeached for nothing more, really, than being a dishonorable man-slut, I was afraid that a pattern was starting.

And that is exactly what I see continuing, here. Cloaked in false righteousness, the Dems are going to punish the GOP for having dared to go after their icon of socialist sleaze.

Are we going to look back in 12, or 16 or 20 years, and wonder just how is is that, suddenly every one of our President's is impeached? Are we going to wonder how it is that we have become a third-world country, government-wise, in which the next step after losing an election is fleeing the country, to avoid prosecution?

Oh, this is also something we can lay at the feet of America's second most dangerous enemy, the media, as they have steadfastly refused to make public all information about the translation of Saddam's papers and the verification of many of Bush's beliefs about the situation in Iraq orior to the invasion.

DWT- he didn't break the law being a man-slut-

He broke the law by lying under oath during depositiona nd encouraging others, some government employees, to lie under oath. He then repeated the lying to a Grandy Jury. If the nations top law enforcement official (he is the AG's boss, after all) can commit perjury, than he is truly above the law.


BTW, the whole sexual harrassment thing seemed to come into vogue when the Dems used it to bash Clarence Thomas during his confirmation hearings, suggesting that one women's testimony, without eveidence or suggestion of a pattern, should be enough to keep a qualified man of the Supreme Court.


Clinton was asked about Monica Lewinsky in the Paula Jones deposition because Jone's attorneys were in fact trying to establish a pattern, that Clinton liked to get jiggy with the hired help.

I know, Ed. Obstruction of justice and subornation of perjury.

However, the Dems all believe he was indicted for engaging in something any one of (guys included) would have happily done for him.

A poetic justice is that it was Clinton himself, pandering to his feminist constituency, who signed the travesty allowing to do that into law.

The point is that Democratic governmental officials do not have to obey the same laws, rules, and regulations that we, the mass unwashed, have to. Some are more unequal to others.

I do understand what DWT is saying though. I think the same thing about the "crimes against humanity" charges in the war crimes trials.

However, letting Clinton get away with lying under oath would have been the same as having Congress complaining when William Jefferson's office was searched for that $90,000.

It is especially interesting to note that Democrats -- who preach equality -- tend to be the ones who are the most elitist.

The same can be said about the university professors in Liberal Arts who continually preach Revolution. And they go hand in hand with the Dems though so many of them deny it.

One of my brother's law school instructors is an anarchist.

Who lives in the most expensive part of town in a mansion populated with antiques.

Oh, and he has a cook and a housekeeper, too.

I mentioned the conversation I overheard on my bus the other night. (I forgot to mention that the woman also said that the Electoral College was started, perhaps during World War I, because women could not vote and the men were of at war, and we needed someone to elect the President. Yes, I know that World War I started and ended between Presidential elections -- but the woman was not quite sure which war brought about the Electoral College -- she just thought it was WWI). Makes me want to start some sort of school that actually teaches history and math and science. And classical arts -- not the crucifix in the urine stuff.

Hmm. Have an address?

Perhaps he would be willing to have a few true anarchs visit and umm, share the wealth?
